“The northerly aspect of this villa really sets it apart and makes it unique, because when it’s blowing a southerly in Victor, it’s actually quite sheltered here because it’s in the lee of The Bluff, and that really makes it the perfect escape, and it’s a real walk-in-walk-out lifestyle,” Mr Day says.

“The view is nothing short of spectacular, whether it’s summer or winter, and it looks over the island and all around it, and offers views back over Encounter Bay. We can walk around to Petrel Cove, hike up The Bluff or walk down to the beach. The general store is about a 15-minute walk away, so we always walk down there for breakfast.

“It’s been a great holiday house and I think we’ve had every Christmas here since we bought it. The villa itself is really family friendly. It’s a very relaxing place – you just feel like you’ve really left the city behind.”

The home offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms, multiple indoor and outdoor living areas, and quality fixtures and finishes. The Days have renovated the home throughout, updating flooring, installing shutters, and modernising the bathrooms and kitchen.

“There’s no through-traffic and all the kids in the villas play together openly, it’s really special. We liked it so much we bought another one in the same complex, just across the road, but now we’ve decided we don’t need two.”
